Perception of clinical simulation as a didactic in the teaching of postpartum hemorrhage in undergraduate medicine
Abstract
Objective: To determine the perception that undergraduate medical students have of high-fidelity clinical simulation workshops used in obstetrics in simulated emergency scenarios in postpartum hemorrhage. Materials and methods: Cross-sectional, quantitative study, with a descriptive approach, with a sample of 49 individuals, a questionnaire was made with Likert-type scales that evaluated the perception of medical students about simulation as a didactic strategy for teaching postpartum hemorrhage, through of a satisfaction survey, and with statistical analysis using SPSS software. Results: The perception of the simulation workshop was defined as positive in 89.4% of the students, the utility was considered favorable in the majority (74.5%), 57.4% of the students considered that the simulation achieves improvement in clinical skills, 89.4% consider that it strengthens confidence and 76.6% state that simulation should be a mandatory component in the medical training process. Conclusions: The clinical simulation is a didactic tool that has been shown to be perceived as favorable by the majority of students who attend emergency scenarios of postpartum hemorrhage care, the workshops are accessible for the teaching-learning process from the safety of the patient and the training process in times of pandemic where access to health areas is restricted, being received positively by students in the areas of improvement in clinical skills, in confidence and therefore they consider that it should be a didactic tool in the undergraduate medicine curriculum.
